Its Detection Publicly Claimed by the

missioner, Gen. S. H. Hurst, has made
public (Circular No. O. the result OF the

by the legislature. with instructions TO
make an examination of the food supply

examination to the public. The exam
'inatiOn of the baking powders was made
by Prof ii. A. Weber, state chemist,
and, relating as it does to an article OF
daily use in the foO6 of almost every
one. is of particular interest"
The startling fact is brought out by
the report that the Royal baking
powder contains carbonate of ammonia

substance originally derived from ami

the commissioners found DIR. Price 5

poisonous drug. and that it IS recon-
mended by government chemists, the
heads of the great universities and
public food analysts as the pureSt,

family use.
As health is paramount to all other
considerations we would advise all
housekeepers for the detection OF con-
cealed ammonia and other deleterlouS
drugs.as we'll as to determine the purity
of anv baking powder. to make this
simple test: Mix in tin cup Il heaping

ammonia will be plainly detected. The
presence of ammonia in most cases indi-
Gates that alum is used. as nearly all the
alum of commerce contains ammonia.
Pure Baking Powder will not give the
